Un court poème et une calligraphie pleine page en regard One of the best, and best produced books on Calligraphy, I have come across, added to the fact that the calligraphy is complemented by the addition of poems of the Tang Dynasty really puts the book in a higher class. Take into account that there are a further five books in the series, and it makes calligraphy heaven! Shambala have done a magnificent job in producing this short series. Pity they're now out of print, but I'm glad I bought my set beforehand. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

The poetry selected for this volume comes from the Tang Dynasty (618907), an era when the influence of Buddhism was at its strongest in China. The best loved and most influential of all Chinese poems come from this period. Like all books in the Shambhala Calligraphy series,In Love with the Waytakes a classic spiritual text that has been a subject for calligraphers for many years-and uses it to showcase a uniquely modern example of the calligrapher's art, bringing the text to life in a striking new way.In Love with the Wayis accompanied by FranÇois Cheng's introductory essay on poetry of the Tang period, and by a closing essay on the work of the calligrapher, Fabienne Verdier. Calligraphy (from the Greek for "beautiful writing") is an art where word and image meet, where the artist strives to give visual expression to the meaning of words in a way that transcends the text while remaining completely faithful to it. It is a discipline that has been invested with spiritual significance wherever it has arisen-and it has arisen throughout the world in every age, in virtually every language, culture, and religion. The Shambhala Calligraphy series is a collection of books devoted to contemporary expressions of this "art of the word," featuring contemporary calligraphers' striking new interpretations of texts that have been traditional subjects for calligraphic interpretation. Whether in Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, Latin, or Chinese pictographs, the characters, words, and sentences are brought to life anew here in a choreography of mind, hand, and heart by which letter and spirit fuse in a single stroke.
